Okay… it’s the Canadian equilelent of Dragon’s Den. The CANADIAN show is the Dragon’s Den… Japan has nothing to do with it

How long do you think Shark Tank will keep its strong ratings? Seems every show is getting better, but what do you think the public is saying about it? Thanks.

Also, I agree with Kevin above. The Sharks were mislead. Wispots is an up and coming product we see in the mass media sooner than later.

I saw this show for the first time tonight. It was So Good!!!! Finally something in reality TV that’s not mindless and boring. I can’t wait to see the next, the next, and the following shows. I’ve always dreamed of coming up with an idea that the public could really use and that I can make lots of money from. Seeing this show has inspired me to put more emphasis into that dream yet it’s given me pointers as what to do once I invent the invention of all inventions. Please, never cancel this show or at least not let the sharks get bored before they get a chance to critique my multi-million dollar idea. Do you have suggestions to links I could research concerning patents and how they are obtained as well as sights that can produce prototypes for the idea I have in mind?

Dear “Clueless Rosemary”

Patent office is located in Alexandria, Virginia and is run by the Dept. of Commerce.

When is the last time anyone in the USA won a case against the so-called US Patent Office. It is a privately owned company, not owned or operated in the United States. Is anyone surprised they never get anywhere with their ideas. The whole thing is a fraud.

Don’t let these guys rip you off! Last nights episode showed just what a couple of these huys are made of. They are looking to put your hard work in there pockets and leave you holding nothing.

Oh please. Sure, the grammar could have been checked, but it doesn’t bother me as much as it would have had it been in all caps or lower case. And Half a brain, maybe you could have spelled “MySpace” in proper camel case and properly hyphenated “12-year-old.”

Kudos to the creator of this blog. I always make sure to catch the repeats on Hulu. I did mention to my cousin (who I also ended up introducing the show to) that it’s like American Inventor. Anyone remember the Bladder Buddy?

Apparently this show is the American equivalent of the Japanese show, “Dragons’ Den.”

I agree with Half a brain!! Even if he read it – he’d still hit send! He is either ignorant or just doesn’t care. I don’t know which is worse!!

Ok – read your writing before you hit publish…there are more grammatical errors in this than the myspace page of a 12 year old!!

I agree with Kevin. The Sharks were totally clueless. Has anyone heard of Phreesia – it’s the same exact concept as Wiispots and is raking in millions of dollars annually (of course, I wonder if there are intellectual property issues). The problem was in the presentation – it should have led with the revenue model and then gotten into the execution. If it’s a media and data analysis play – like Phreesia – then there is no reason why to charge docs $9k. I think those two things completely derailed the pitch. It’s all about the data…not killing time.
